  • Nice to see it in the flesh@GTI International last weekend.          

  • That came out a few weeks ago. 2.5tfsi with a turbo swap to 500bhp and a VW racing intake.  Same as my Yeti.   Bet it's fun, I know mine is.  Good power delivery at 500bhp from the 2.5 5 pot engine

  • Every DSG car I've had, I've got bored of rather quickly. More speed. Less fun. IMO.

All the go the VW Golf would have, and in the handy load carrying capacity of a Skoda Octavia Estate.

Just not AWD.!!

Interesting ;

Read it earlier in the week George.

No doubt covered by full manufacturers warranty!? That's a no then!

410bhp through just the front wheels would be horrendous I'd imagine.

Imagine it with a loaded boot and a cycle carrier on the towball, and Skoda OEM tyres fitted!

So we have the GTI Clubsport announced but not launched or selling yet, now today we have the

 

GTI TCR Restricted to 20off unit already sold.

However, after all the willy waving of 2014/15 no news at all about a volume production sales for R400.

 

So VW , put up or shut up in relation to the anticipated R400,don't keep potential punters hanging.!!

They have to have their annual meeting and show the accounts which are without doubt very very bad and what they have available needs spending on the top trumps Bugatti. At the moment they are trawling the archived and showing concepts that were dropped and now need flashed to distract the general public from the elephants in the VW board room.
